Selecting, Adapting, and Applying Toys as Learning Tools for Handicapped Children.

Langley, M. Beth

Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, v5 n3 p101-18 Fall 1985

Handicapped children's responses to toys vary as a function of sensory and response limitations, cognitive delays, and the quality of experiences provided. Each developmental difficulty generates special developmental needs that must be recognized and considered. The article focuses on criteria for selecting, adapting, and using toys for each developmental problem. (Author/CL)
